The installation on those machines has gone as expected, I just use a boot floppy and use the ftp install option. I don't see a way to do this on the sparc64 machine. I went through the install docs and saw some references to using miniroot but I did not see any miniroot.fs file in the installation folder for 1.5.

If you have another NetBSD machine around, you can netboot it.
You can also netboot from a non-NetBSD machine but the diskless man page
is written for a NetBSD server :)
